Any Latin scholars about? 26 Mar 2009 I need about a page of Latin translated. It’s late – 18th century, so no classicisms. I will be Very Grateful (and that’s about all I’ll do, I’m sorry. They don’t pay much on a postdoc’s salary). History

Biology Why is Darwin’s theory so controversial? 24 Nov 2012 So asks this essay and gets the whole thing wrong. Darwin’s theories (plural) are not controversial because they imply that species are mutable. This was a widely held view by preachers, moralists, Aristotelians, naturalists, breeders, formalists, folk biology, and even biblical translators. Darwin was not controversial because he implied racist… Read More

Just a suggestion, why not try usenet group alt.language.latin They seem to be pretty helpful there. but prepare for a lengthy discussion about some obscure details 😉

How about posting it? I did Latin in high school, and I’m sure if you post it, the combined intellect of Scienceblogs could give you an approximation.
just googling ‘translate into latin’ brought up this free software: http://www.translation-guide.com/free_online_translators.php?from=English&to=Latin not sure how good it is, but I imagine that it’s pretty easy to tell if it sucks (because if it does, it’ll give you gobledeegook). if nothing else, you’ll get a rough translation + it should be easier for your volunteer to fix it than to start from scratch

Teaching myself but dyslexic so I only use for personal consumption. I had difficulty with some obscure but key correspondance sent to John Ray, did an exhaustive search for a translation came up with zip as I suspect I would.

None of the few refrences on the subject refered to a translation. A rather happy bunny.You never know whats round the corner.
